Bugs has two goals - beat the reckless Speed-Burner gang in an auto race, and beat Tom Turtle in a race to make up for an embarrassing previous loss (the famous Tortoise vs. Hare race). Bugs builds a hot rod with a jet engine. He also tricks the Speed-Burner gang into hiring Tom Turtle to be their driver. But the gang also builds a new car with a jet engine. During the race they try several times to sabotage Bugs. The race ends in a tie. At the end Bugs trades his hot rod for a speedboat.
